Shaped like a cartoon lightning bolt, Lake Wakatipu is NZ's third-largest lake. It reaches a depth of 372m, meaning the lake bed actually sits below sea level.

Many historic railroad lines run through Bohemia, including the Franz Joseph Railway from Vienna to Pilsen/Prague. On the way to Prague, I was able to take a picture of the pretty village of Arnoštovice with its graceful church tower from the Rychlik.

The regulars may remember a post from a few weeks ago, linked below, showing this winter's cliff erosion due to the constant storms. It included the prediction that a particular section of the coastal path would 'go' i.e. collapse. That has now happened with the South West Coast Path being closed at that location in the last day or two.
The photo above was taken earlier this week at a location some 30 miles / 50 kms west of my original post. Certain sections of the SWCP have also been closed in this area in recent years and diversions put in place. It is now official that Britain had the wettest February since records began, so more cliff falls are certain, even when the weather becomes drier and warmer.

D1020 lasted for only 11 years, and was withdrawn in June 1973, and scrapped in April 1974.
Seven of the class have been preserved.

Bit of a story here....
Some 29 years ago (yikes!) I arrived in Sheffield having transferred from London Ambulance to take up my new post at Longley Ambulance Station.
I filled a vacancy there due to a chap leaving and going off to Canada to start a new life over there in the ambulance service.
His name was/is Lou Gelsthorpe.
The other day I was sat in Middlewood Ambulance Station when a guy came in and asked if there were any 'old' ambulance men about..
I said no everybody was out bar me and the cleaners.
I asked him what he wanted 'old ambulance men' for and he said that he used to work for South Yorkshire Ambulance a while back but had moved to Canada...
The penny slowly dropped and I asked him his name.....
Yes! It was/is the same guy! Lou Gelsthorpe!
I was amazed at seeing him and then I told him that I was the guy who took his place at Longley Station 29 years ago... It was then his turn to be amazed...!
What a thing eh!
For me to be at Middlewood Station when he called in on the off chance & not even the station we were both at 29 years ago either!.
Amazing..!
We sat down and had a bit of a reminisce and I got out the station photo albums and we looked through them and he saw guys and gals that he recognised and even remembered names of! I had to point out the ones who had not only retired but had unfortunately died as well.. (bit sad but very good too!)
He couldn't stay too long but I asked if I could take a picture of him and put it up here on Flickr..
So I did! There he is in the top one with one of our newest vehicles.....
Plus for a 'context' view I have placed him (in the lower picture) leaning on the very vehicles that both he & I drove & worked from out of Longley Station, but of course not at the same time!
Not a great 'clone' shot but I thought I'd put them together...
Wow what an interesting encounter eh!
Lou said that he had some old photos from his time with SYAS and would email them to me... So watch this space..
I work for Yorkshire Ambulance Service on the RRVs in and around the city of Sheffield in South Yorkshire.
It’s a great job and I feel very honoured to be able to help people at their point of need.
Check out the website for all sorts of info re YAS and the work we do.
